How to configure trap forwarding on Windows servers

1. Log in to the source server. You must have Administrator privileges.
2. Use the itpconfig.exe enable trapforwarding subcommand to enable the trap proxy.

   itpconfig.exe enable trapforwarding --ipaddress=destination --port=162 --community=trap_community

   where destination is the IP address of the server that should receive the traps, and trap_community is the SNMP trap community that the destination is listening for.

   Note ‐ the port number of 162 can not be modified on Windows.

3. If either of the source or destination servers use a firewall, configure the firewall rules on both to allow incoming traps.
   1. Go to Control panel and select Firewall.
   2. Click on Advanced Setting and then Inbound Rules on the left panel. The rules are shown in the right panel.
   3. Enable Inbound Rules for both private and domain by right clicking SNMP Trap Service and selecting Enable.
4. Restart the SNMP Trap service and the Oracle Hardware Management Agent service.
   1. Go to Server Manager, select Services.
   2. Find the SNMP Trap service and start/restart it.
   3. Find the Oracle Server Hardware Management Agent service and start/restart it.
